Oxy-Cut Art

Rusty shovels and wheelbarrows, old oil drums and car parts – any disreputable, likely-to-be-discarded steel objects – are turned into lacy-looking, decorative art with an oxyacetylene torch and the keen eye of artist/welder Cal Lane. These "industrial doilies," as Ms. Lane calls them, mirror the yin yang forces of delicate and strong, industrial and domestic, and masculine and feminine. Who knew a welding torch could do all that?
